Turbo

Mr. Red Pony · March 10th, 2010, 03:25 PM

Where is a good place to get a good, cheap turbo kit for my stang. Sadly TMA went down long ago but i never knew. Just found out right before i was going to by one of his kits. Also, any good words on the side scoop turbos?

Side scoop turbos? Those kits are usually expensive to have custom made, which is what your gonna have to do now that TMA isn't making kits... have one custom made.

or get a used kit.... idk of anyone off the top of my head that is currently making these kits, but buying a used one or having one custom made is your best bet. the custom made kit will cost about $4000-$5000 (correct me if im wrong guys) but if you are looking for cheap then a used kit is the way to go

What would be the best size for twin? i heard a small and a large is perfact. idk

twin t3/t5 57mm seem to be happy on a stock motor, but if your worried about price then you want a single kit.

There is the option of a rear mount setup(doesnt require custom header). Look to ststurbo.com for their universal kit.

dang jt you beat me to it. i am curious how the sts turbo would handle in everyday driving, especially in places that get snow. idk how snow would mix with the turbo. but i do think that you could make more power, since the turbo would not be in the engine bay where all of the heat is trapped.
